Default 302 starts then dies immediately

Hello all,

I'm new here and hope to use this site all the time. What i have is a FFR kit with a 302 out of a 89 mustang. I put on a edelbrock card and have a msd dist and coil. I am also running a blue holley electric fuel pump. My ride was running great and then I had to leave the country for a while on biz. When I got back, the cobra would fire up, then immediately die. Here is what i have tried to fix, but nothing is working.

-i rebuilt the carb (1st thing i tried)
-replaced the fuel pump
-tested electric choke
-cleaned all fuel filters

At first, the engine would sputter before it died, now it just dies. I know i am getting gas. Acts as if it getting flodded. I have the fuel regulated to 6 psi. Can it be electrical?

It's killing me, want to take it out.

Thanks for the help.
